Title says it all. I was in Chicago recently and had the pleasure to see him. That whole news cast was quite unprofessional but in a good way. They were catty and backstabbing and it was all aired. It seemed much more entertaining than the typical news. The weatherman was too funny because he sounded exactly like Elmer fudd. What was his name. Anyone else know about it and laugh?

I know that Harry Volkman is the regular guy at the moment. He’s older … doesn’t sound like Elmer Fudd to me. Might be another guy.

I didn’t know Elmer Fudd sounded any different in Chicago than he does anywhere else.

My family members there all thought this guys sounded like Elmer Fudd and were laughing at him as well. Hmm. This guy is older and seems really out of touch with everything too, if that helps.

If he seemed out of touch, it’s got to be Harry Volkman.
